It looks like Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was seriously wounded by a gunshot to the head in an assassination attempt, will in fact be traveling to see her husband shuttle launch after all!

We brought you the news that it was a possibility due to how well she had been recovering, but now it looks like she has done so well that it'll actually happen.

No dates for her travel have been announced, and she won't be making any statements or media appearances while there. Which is fine with us, because the trip will be hard enough for her, and we want her to get better as soon as possible!

This is wonderful news, and we continue to send our good vibes to her so she'll have a quick recovery and a beautiful trip!

You are ahead of the curve Perez. She is my congresswoman and it is being reported here in Southern Arizona that her staff is indeed preparing for her to travel to Florida. However this has NOT been approved as yet by the medical team.

I wish this lady the best, but to be frank, why are we sending a shuttle into space when our government is at the ceiling allowed for government spending? In all of this government hoopla about the shutdown, (smoke and mirrors,) seems like people forget that the budget cuts are going to devastate the working class of our country. We have dead animals all over the world. We have water that is filled with radiation. And almost every major earthquake in recent years has come soon after underwater nuclear testing. Do the research and stand for something real!!
